My new Omega 8006 Juicer
I am overly impressed with my new Omega 8006 Juicer. The feed chute on the 8006 is fairly small, so produce needs to be cut up into tiny small pieces. The prep work required to make a juice is longer than with my previous Breville juicer, but the juice that comes out of this beast…

We’re rockin’ into day 2 of the cleanse. How are you doing? I’m a bit tired and my skin is doing something funky – blemishes galore up in ‘her, but otherwise I’m feeling great. It’s normal, when doing a cleanse, to feel a bit slow and tired, so I’m not too concerned. Slow and steady…
3 Day Juice Cleanse
I was an emotional wreck the days leading up to my trip to New York City. I’ve never been able to handle the unknown very well, and a trip to The Big Apple was no exception to this. Nervousness and anxiety do a number on my digestion each and every time. Blah. That, coupled with…

North Pole Green Juice
I remember the day my Mom came home with a juicer… it was a scary. Her eyes lit up with excitement, she said something about beets, spinach… kale. I remember thinking, ‘Dad hates beets, what person likes spinach, and what the heck is a kale?’ I liked my veggies with butter, dressings and spices, not…
